Find out what your peers are saying about Check Point Software Technologies, Lookout, Zimperium and others in Mobile Threat Defense."The easy deployment is the key for us. I can simply send a link through email to a user, then they install the software and are protected."
"The best thing about the product is that it is transparent and does not impact the users."
"It is very easy for my company to get information from the product's support team."
"I really like the application scanning feature that scans all of the installed applications, and not only what appears in the add or remove apps, and then reports the results in the console."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the filtering, interface configuration, and threat management."
"First, the granular visibility of apps & traffic which we get through Check Point SandBlast Mobile are good. We can see each & every installed app & information for each app about severity & risk."
"We like Harmony's ability to encrypt transactions between mobile devices. All the user's transactions are encrypted. That's an excellent feature. We can detect, quarantine, and address any issues in the handset itself."
"The product's initial setup phase is very straightforward."
"A reliable and stable solution for remote network access."
"The product is very stable."
"It is highly scalable, speedy, and reliable."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its ease of use, management, and support."
"Stability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"It's a very stable solution and I'd say it works perfectly."
"The split panel functionality is much better in the Cisco IOS SSL VPN than in the Aruba VPN."
"The setup and installation was easy."
"It does the process in the background and it does a wonderful job but the methodologies don't pop up. They should make it more interactive."
"The ability to integrate local and cloud technologies to create a hybrid scenario would be an upgrade."
"We don't have Google MDM being supported by the solution as of yet. It is a feature requirement... They are aware that it is something that I need. My objective is to be able to have the MDM integration and to have some level of control over the asset itself."
"The remote configuration has room for improvement."
"I think that the pricing for the Check Point products should be reconsidered, as we found it to be quite expensive to purchase and to maintain."
"Harmony has more support for Android OS as opposed to iOS. You need a third-party MDM solution to integrate with iOS. If you don't have an MDM, your app can't scan on an iOS device. The solution can scan everything on Android. It sees all your apps."
"The product does not provide deep capabilities for sharing specific data to users or groups separately, nor does it provide visibility as to whether a user has access to the data or not."
"One thing that should be improved in the future of the ability to ensure that mobile devices are protected from connections in environments with unlimited connectivity."
"The solution needs to integrate password-less technology so that you don't have to remember passwords each time that you log in, which is otherwise tedious. We should be able to log in as long as our system is connected to the internet."
"They could provide the cloud-based as-a-service model with monthly rental payments."
"The solution takes some time to log in because of some unavoidable security barriers, but it would be better if that could happen faster."
"Cisco IOS SSL VPN should improve its pricing."
"Multi-factor authentication in Cisco IOS SSL VPN has certain shortcomings that need improvement."
"The product's RPA tools need enhancement for simplified business process automation."
"It would be nice if we could use this not just on mobile, but on laptops and desktops as well."
"The only issue with Cisco IOS SSL VPN is on the price point. Price is an area of the solution where improvements are required."
